I am working with a large highways team in a Local Authority currently consisting of 30 engineers and technicians is now looking for a Senior Highways Engineer to join the team.
This Public Authority can offer you some fantastic benefits, such as 29 days annual leave (plus bank holidays) plus 2 flexi days a month, plus volunteering days off! As a Local Authority they also have a pension that you'd get nowhere near in a private consultancy and it's a 37 hour week.
The job itself offers so much, with varied responsibilities across detailed design, project management and site supervision. Plenty of Capital Projects, including Active Travel, Junction Improvements, Road Alignments and City Centre Urban Regeneration.
